Those who touch our lives stay in our hearts forever. I will miss you my dear friend. 

Both Jim and I worked with Barb at RBC.  Jim worked with Barb at the St. Catharines Area Office, and I worked with Barb in HR for Ontario District on Burloak in Burlington.  Barb was a special lady who I continued to get to know over the years through our many get-togethers, and who I regarded as a wonderful friend.
My deepest condolences to Barb’s family.
Sue English and Jim Stevenson

Was very sad to hear of Barb's passing. So many happy memories of time spent at RBC- St. Paul and Queen Branch. We had a lot of fun in those days. Barb was a beautiful person. So kind and caring. Smart. Funny. She spoke often of her family and lived life well. May she rest in peace. She will be missed. Sincere condolences to her family.

My condoleances to all the family!  Barb was a dear and amazing friend! She truly loved  her family! She shared so many stories about them. She also always wanted to help her friends around  at the  Olympia residence! She adored spending time with her grandsons Brandon and Taylor!  Barb loved her great grand-daughter. Everyday , we left for a walk, we shared photos or talked about Savannah!  I will miss Barb ‘s company, her Hello in my patio door, the fact that she was always close by! Rest in peace Barb!  I will certainly miss you a lot! 🩷

Our sincere condolences to Barb’s family. 
We met Barb & Milan when we moved into Appleby Woods.  They were our neighbours and became friends. Barb and Milan were lovely people and we were disappointed when Barb moved to Niagara Falls.  She was a lovely person who we will miss very much.  RIP. 

Shocked at your passing 
RIP Barb
Robert & Mary

Tammy and family,  we were saddened to hear of Barbara's passing, and your brother Tommy as well.  So much heartache in such a short time.  Rick has lifelong memories of time spent with your Mom when they were growing up in Lakeport and Colborne.  You are in our thoughts at this time and through the time ahead

Dear  Tammy
  Shocked  to read  the passing of  your  mom.  So much heartache ...in such a short time for you and your family. My deepest condolences to you all.

There are no words I could write to express how much Barb meant to me. She is my oldest and has always been one of my most cherished friends. I met her at Welland and Bunting 50 years ago and she took me under her wing and kept me there and she was always somebody I could trust and rely on. She was one of the most selfless people I have ever known and always looked out for her friends and family. She always gave me the best advice and supported me through a lot of tough moments in my life. I owe her big time. 

Tammy, Derek, Brendon, Taylor and to their families know that I know how much Barb meant to all of you because I know how much you all meant to her. Know my love and thoughts are with you all.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Barb’s Family. She will be missed here at Olympia. 

I worked with Barb in Burlington as a trainer for Ontario. She lived 3 doors down from my mom at the time. She was always so supportive to me, and built my independence in a very unstructured role. She taught me a lot. I wish I had not lost touch with her...Condolences to her family.

Our prayers and thoughts are with Barb’s family at this very difficult time.

My heart goes to the family at this time.
You have had two great losses in such short time.
May you find peace and healing.

Our sincere condolences. Barb was a cherished neighbour and truly a lovely person. Be assured of our prayers during this most difficult time and may GOD bless you. 

My deepest sympathy to you all. 
Tammy the loss of a mom is very difficult. May she rest in peace.❤️
Take care of yourself.

I had the privilege of being the manager of RBC 89-91 St.Paul St 
St. Catharines,ON in  1988 / 1989 - Barb was my Rock !! It was a big staff and we had a lot going on - I always relied on Barb for good advice and admired her sense of humour and her devotion to her family and her love for Milan and his family in Yugoslavia. She was a very special lady - full of grace - I have thought of her often through the years. My deepest sympathies to the family
